'i'can't see,” he said, f'iiow It could be anything but spite. Why should Mr. Wimpy advertise this house for $15 a month, when It had been bridging $40? Why should he advertise It Mr negroes only, and why should he be so anxious to rent It-to negroes that be offers to back them up? "The neighbors are all making ar rangements to move out. We shall pe tition the city government to do some thing to protect us, If thnt is possible. My church will certainly take action tomorrow, and, will probably -bring suit against Mr. Wimpy for the depreda tion of the value of the church prop erty, because of the negro boarding house. "I never heard of such a trick before. It’s awful,” As a representotive of The Georgian passed the negro boarding house a woman was heard to say: “The man who rented that house to negroes ought to be hung. “I tried to get that house a week ago at a much higher figure,” she explained, "and he said he wouldn't let me have It for $100 per month, for he wanted negroes to llvo there. I asked him why, Ahd ho said because I wouldn't, stay there as long as negroes would.” Buiinen Trsniaction. Mr. Wimpy, In a telephone conversa tion. Insisted that It was 'purely a bus Iness transaction. "I put the ad. In to attract attention. I have rented the house for a-long time, and at a good figure.

New Yofl? Nov.' 27.—There was mur der done In Nathan Holler's sweat shop. In Spring street, today. Antoinette Naccoi, a pretty 19-year- old Italian girl, who vu to have been a bride In two weeks' time, was shot through the head and the left breast and died Instantly. The young man whom she was to have married, Vlneento Lavora. was shot, too, but his wounds are not se rious. : He Is now In St. Vincent hos pital. The man who Is charged with the shooting Is Gulseppe I'iglla. He Is a little wixened-up bit of a mail, and an expert tailor. It Is said that It was the Jealousy which the little tailor aroused In Antoinette Naccoi und her sweet heart, who, though they had worked In the shop more than two years, could not equal the newcomer's work, that led to the fatal shooting. If any one had been so unfortunate as to have been at the corner of De catur and Courtland streets Tuesday morning at 2 o'clock, underneath an Immense steel girder which was being hoisted for the/new Washington street viaduct. It would have been necessary to'remove the remains from the pave ment with a scraper. For the girder, which weighs only ten tons and Is but 61 feet long, after hav ing be*n raised almost Into position across Decatur street, suddenly fell with a tremendous, crash, a distance of 12 feet to the pavement, the result ot a little prank of one of tKe work men. This workman was charged with the special duty ot holding a guy rope, which controlled the entire proceed ings. When the big girder was several feet In thet air the man with the guy rope probably began to wonder what the result would be If the girder should fall. And then, with a view of satisfy ing his curioalty, the workman, with out any warning whatever, suddenly let go 0ie rope. As the girder tended the man who had turned loose the rope proceeded 10 'flight a rag." He got way, from the scene as quickly as possible and has not been seen since. Several hours of hard work had been required to get the girder In readiness for hoisting, and all of this work had to be gone over again after the acci dent. Shortly before daylight the gird er was again hoisted and this time w..s placed In’ position, spanning Decatur street. In order to raise the girder. It was necessary to cut the trolley wires In Decatur street. It was announced Tuesday that that remaining girder will be raised Wed - • need ay night. The police have been asked to. have special men on the scene to prevent people from congregating and endangering themselves. MME. SCHUMANN-HEINK HAS PRAISE FOR CARUSO.
